As I said it's difficult to see on a high PPI screen unless you're looking for it. High Sierra, I think, is the first version where this bug was introduced, so you most certainly have it but it just isn't drastic enough a change to bother most people on a Macbook's screen. The rendering lag is another problem that was introduced with the one I'm referring to, which is a separate issue but they are probably related.


I have to admit I haven't used a low DPI screen in macOS since Maverick times, so you might be right. PDFs in Preview look perfectly fine to me.

Maybe Apple actually optimized rendering for hiDPI displays since probably that's where the majority of users are these days.
